Kyle inhaled a deep breath as he stepped out of the portal, only to feel the air around him suddenly become sparse. It was as if the natural energy in the place he had just arrived was faint, almost non-existent.
"Hmmm...?"
He frowned, however, his tension eased as he saw the field of flowers beneath his feet. Different, delicate, soothing fragrances filled the air, calming his senses. Yet, he knew better than to let his guard down.
Behind him, the other Celestials in robes hurriedly stepped out of the portal, leaving the territory of the Golden Guardians clan and entering the domain of another.
Finally, Kyle turned to acknowledge the Celestial who had materialized on his left side. He hadn't acknowledged him before because the latter was sleeping when he stepped out of the portal, but sensing him, he had jolted awake. Kyle smiled politely, but his words were anything but polite.
"Good morning."
